[Verse 1] I make room at the table Set your name by the plate You say “later, maybe” Then you disappear for days I’ve been saving the small things The jokes and the news But they sit in my pocket Like they don’t mean to you [Pre-Chorus] I’m not asking for forever Just a little of your time Just a little bit of effort So I know you’re still mine [Chorus] Wish you would participate in my life Wish you would participate in my life Don’t stay on the outside Don’t keep me on the side Wish you would participate in my life Wish you would participate in my life I’m right here waiting Say it, then show me tonight [Verse 2] I saw your car in the driveway You were ten feet away Still you sent me a text Instead of coming to stay And I laughed at the message Then I felt kinda small Like I’m talking to a window That won’t open at all [Pre-Chorus] I’m not asking for forever Just a little of your time Just a little bit of effort So I know you’re still mine [Chorus] Wish you would participate in my life Wish you would participate in my life Don’t stay on the outside Don’t keep me on the side Wish you would participate in my life Wish you would participate in my life I’m right here waiting Say it, then show me tonight [Bridge] Come to the birthday dinner Come see who I’ve become Don’t let my whole world Feel like it’s made for one [Final Chorus] Wish you would participate in my life Wish you would participate in my life Don’t stay on the outside Don’t keep me on the side Wish you would participate in my life Wish you would participate in my life I’m right here waiting Say it, then show me tonight
